Replay Pallas mod

[ffm2]

This mod connects 0 A.D. with Replay Pallas, the Wildfire Games site for sharing replays. It can upload your multiplayer games automatically and download all games of a player. This is mainly useful for LocalRatings: players you meet often but have few replays of can then be rated properly.

Install by unzipping it into the right folder. Use the unzipped folder, not the zip, because the small helper program inside has to run:

• On Windows (Vista or newer): C:\Users\{name_of_user}\Documents\My Games\0ad\mods\
• On OSX: ~/Library/Application Support/0ad/mods/
• On Linux: ~/.local/share/0ad/mods/ (may be found in GUI via Home/.local/share/0ad/mods/)

Then enable it in Settings > Mod Selection. You also need Python 3.

How to use:

1. Start the helper and leave it running while you play: helper/start_helper.bat on Windows, helper/start_helper.sh on Linux/OSX. Mods can’t access the internet themselves, so the helper does the uploading and downloading.
2. Go to Main menu > Multiplayer > Replay Pallas, search for a player and press “Download games of …”.
3. Open Local Ratings and press Rebuild.

Uploading, the /pallas chat command, the filter options and everything else are explained in the README.

Current version: 1.0.0

My main motivation for this mod was to get a more accurate rating in LocalRatings and the Teambalancer. More replays mean better ratings and better team suggestions.

If you play a lot of team games, please upload yours. On the Replay Pallas page, press Upload local games…, or turn on automatic upload in the options. You’ll need a Replay Pallas account for this.
